Opinions on Pro BodyBuilding

FullBlownChaos · 05-01-2005, 11:10 PM

Hey all,

I thought i could turn this into a debate between the forum members.
I am not trying to create enemies or alliances within the boards, just trying to find out the majority feeling and attitudes towards the state of the Bodybuilding world as it now stand.

Please try to restrain yourselves from turning this into a slanging match

Ill post my opinion tomorrow, its quite late now.

Night all.

Well...what exactly about Pro Bodybuilding are we debating? Give me an opinion and I'll debate.

On another note...pro's should be paid more...MUCH MUCH more...

Very good point.

I agree with k_muscle, pro's need to be paid more.

I think the AC and Olympia and other pro events should be televised like on ESPN. They can show the world scrabble championship and the cheerleading championship but cant show one thing about bbing???

Although i do enjoy the WSM comps.

Sorry i didn't make the question more clear...

It was late.

Well anything and everything really.

Judges
Money
Mass over Athletic(physiques)
Steroids
Modern Day - Old School bodybuilding
Sponsership Deals
Politics

Anything really, whatever appeals to you write about it here and see if other people agree with you or disagree.

Hope that clears it up

I couldnt agree more with USMuscle. Great post man.
Pro BBers would be paid more if supp companies would pay them more. Its pretty sad that they dont because they make so much money, considering how much they make (Take companies like Muscletech, twinlab, Optimum...). I think this has to do with the fact that pros NEED sponsors, supp companies CAN make it without having pros (what makes you buy your whey protein, the picture of a pro saying it works or the fact that you know it works?).

I don't understad why people don't like Cormier if they like Dex. Sure he's been soft before, but he's been spot on in the past few shows. Plus he's got more mass and he's just as "symmetrical" as Dex, IMO.
